A beautiful barn conversion set in peaceful countryside on a working farm offers a charming hideaway for two guests. Just 4 miles from shops and restaurants in the cathedral city of Exeter, it is within easy reach of glorious Dartmoor, pretty villages and golden South Devon beaches. The single-storey retreat has great character, with a host of original features, including beams, stone walls and an airy vaulted ceiling.

This spacious property is beautifully furnished and thoughtfully designed, with floor-to-ceiling windows flooding the open-plan lounge/diner and adjoining bedroom area with light. Stoke the large, double-sided wood burner before relaxing on comfortable seating or at the dining table. Or enjoy the cosy glow from a sumptuous super-king-size bed at the far end of the room. There’s a separate, spacious kitchen and a useful boot room, with a double sink and an adjacent shower room. Outside, a shared courtyard space with planting has garden furniture and a BBQ, ideal for outdoor dining.

Attractions in Exeter range from the city’s historic cathedral and fine museum to atmospheric tours of medieval underground passages beneath the streets. Take a boat trip from the bustling quayside alongside the River Exe, where you can also find independent shops and restaurants. Enjoy a day out in picturesque Chagford (13.5 miles), where the beautiful River Teign runs nearby. Visit two splendid National Trust properties: Castle Drogo and Killerton House and Gardens both within 11 miles. Explore Dartmoor (9 miles), on a network of paths across its wild landscape of moors, rivers and ancient stones. Head to the coast for beautiful sandy beaches at Exmouth and Dawlish Waren (both 14 miles).
